Franklin’s House: Brisbane House Upper East Side, 14S of 1107 Fifth, Astoria Studios in Queens
Grace’s father, Franklin, owns a beautiful apartment at Brisbane house, located on the Upper East Side. Brisbane House’s lobby is featured a few times, including for a surprise-interrogation of Grace by the New York police.
The filming location of Franklin’s apartment itself, however, is not located in Brisbane House but unit 14S of Central Park South Gate House on Fifth avenue. Designed in 1925 on top of a previous structure, 1107 Fifth became New York’s first 57 room penthouse, which were split in to 6 separate units in 1940.
Unlike Grace’s townhouse, little of the interior of 14S was altered for the show, as barely any of it was actually used in filming.
While the dining rooms, seating areas and balcony do belong to 14S, Franklins epic living room and bedrooms were sets built at Kaufman Astoria Studios in Queens.
